Why do they let them keep LYING about FISA "slowing down" the hunt for
terra-ists?

the egregious liar Pat Roberts just repeated the canard about FISA courts impeding the hot pursuit of bogeymen, saying that even the lag of a few minutes, SECONDS, even might allow another 911 to happen

Biden was on opposit him, and Leslie didn't give him a chance to respond with the oh so often repeated rejoinder that FISA, of course, allows retroACTIVE visits to said court, and does NOT hinder hot pursuit in any way

Roberts was very exercised in his comments leading up to the FISA question, insisting that there has been NO domestic spying by NSA, (wonder which agency WAS carrying it out). He was very Lady Macbeth-like, protesting much too much

1. I saw that. They are so screwed.
Apart from the fact that they themselves knew this was illegal, where is bin Laden? There is no come back to that. If this program is so great, where is he? And why do they only catch Vegans and Quakers and peace grannies?

:rofl:

3. really
not ONCE have I seen any reference to the quakers, vegans, and COUNTless unnamed other Americans who've been spied upon.

not by the MSM hoors, nor by any dems

but I've pretty much quit watching the TV garbage, and feel more the better for it


matter of fact, I'm in a much worse mood than I've been for awhile as a result of delving back into this morass

think I'll go over to the desk and fondle my passport for awhile

2. There is no way roberts would know
whether there has been NO domestic spying. He's making the assumption that the leader of his party is honest and would keep members of his party informed of his actions. bush is a criminal and roberts is just a useful idiot to put on the sunday morning shows. He's a typical "conservative" - way too proud to admit how evil his boss is.
